Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 18 127
The Pediatric Emergency Care Coordinator (PECC) Learning Collaborative Demonstration Project (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-18-127; CFDA 93.127) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). It was created on July 18, 2018, with an original application deadline of August 20, 2018. The program uses a grant funding instrument and falls under the health funding activity category.
This competition is only open to organizations that are already funded under the Emergency Medical Services for Children (EMSC) State Partnership Program. In other words, it is not a general open solicitation; it targets existing EMSC State Partnership recipients and then selects a smaller group from among them to participate in a structured demonstration effort. The opportunity anticipates making about 10 awards, and the maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $100,000 per award.
The central purpose of the project is to create a cohort of EMSC State Partnership sites that will participate in a Learning Collaborative focused on increasing adoption of Pediatric Emergency Care Coordinators within local EMS agencies. A PECC is a designated individual (or role) within an EMS agency who helps drive and coordinate pediatric readiness, such as pediatric-focused training, protocols, equipment considerations, quality improvement activities, and integration of pediatric needs into everyday EMS operations. The Learning Collaborative approach implies an organized, multi-site effort where participating state partnership teams share strategies, test interventions, compare progress, and document what works in a way that others can repeat.
A key goal of this demonstration project is not only to help the selected cohort increase the number of local EMS agencies with a PECC in their own jurisdictions, but also to identify effective and replicable strategies that can be scaled more broadly. HRSA’s intent is for the participating recipients to generate practical lessons, tools, and approaches that can inform and accelerate PECC adoption across all 58 EMSC State Partnership recipient sites. Those 58 sites include U.S. states as well as territories and freely associated states (collectively referenced in the notice as "states"). In practice, the project is designed to function as a proving ground: a smaller set of funded participants tries out strategies in real-world EMS settings, documents barriers and facilitators, and produces evidence-informed guidance that the larger EMSC State Partnership network can use.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a targeted capacity-building and dissemination effort within an existing national pediatric emergency care infrastructure. By funding a limited number of current EMSC State Partnership recipients to participate in a Learning Collaborative, HRSA aims to speed up nationwide progress in pediatric readiness at the local EMS agency level, using the PECC role as a concrete, measurable implementation target and a lever for system-wide improvement.Apply for HRSA 18 127
